Hi there, lovely to be invited to join the forum, thank you for having me. Like others, I was inspired to learn BSL by watching Rose Aylling-Ellis on Strictly. Another reason is that I’ve just had a career change and have recently started teaching drama, story telling and singing to under 5’s and I really want to be able to be as inclusive as I can in my classes, and also so that other young people might start learning it from a early age. What’s lovely is that my young children also like learning it with me too. I started the online course a few weeks ago so still very much a beginner but enjoying it.

  Hi
- We need Volunteer Befrienders proficient in BSL!

  Absolutely, Kevin. People affected by sensory impairments are often limted in the ways they can access their community, meaning one-to-one befriending can act as a real life-line for those individuals. BSL volunteers would allow us to support many more people in the community.

  Been looking to learn BSL for a while now but never really had the courage to start as I thought it was beyond me But my friend has hearing issues and a short course at college turned up and so a group of friends and I decided to start to learn it, both to help with our friend and also to increase ourt own knowledge. Will look to carry on a little further in college and sign up for another course.

  Good Afternoon My name is Jon, I'm new to learning BSL, but really enjoying it and finding it both taxing and enjoyable in equal measures Just finished the alphabet and numbers so pressing on with jobs and places next. If anyone fancies a chat, please feel free to reply.... 😀
